Nopalxochia ackermannii SEEDS

Nopalxochia ackermannii is a rain-forest species that grows on trees as an epiphyte (or occasionally on rocks as a lithophytic plant). In other words, these are cacti that grow in trees! They grow their roots into the bark of their host tree. Their only access to moisture and nutrients is from rain and droppings that fall from above. They also always grow under a canopy of trees and are never exposed to the full sun of the desert.
